Happy 2008!

Well, it’s the end of another year, last year I did a post to summarise the year and plans for the next year so I thought I would review my progress. It’s been a very interesting year with lots of different things happening. Just some of the things technically based I have done:

As a developer, I want to better understand the low level aspects of software development (threads, JIT, Garbage collection – generally the CLR and DLR better). I also want to improve my high level understanding (patterns and practices).

As a tester, I want to improve my skill at writing automated tests. I also want to improve my manual testing abilities.

Read more code. I want to start reading more open source code from various different projects to help point 12 and 13.
